9 Memorable Tom Cruise Movie GIFs

1. Risky Business

Anyone who's slid across the hallway in socks will agree that Tom Cruise's Risky Business dance scene is famous. Cruise's boogie to the tune of Bob Seger's "Old Time Rock and Roll” has been recreated several times in pop culture.

2. Top Gun

“She’s lost that lovin’ feeling."

3. Interview With the Vampire

The makeup and special effects in this scene are not something we commonly see for Tom Cruise characters.

4. Mission: Impossible

Cruise's secret agent moves in Mission: Impossible are well-known for their intensity. Scenes like this raised the bar for action movies.

5. Jerry Maguire

After one of Cruise's famous cinematic meltdowns, his character Jerry Maguire begs Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.) for some help — over, and over, and over again.

6. Eyes Wide Shut

This film contained such strong sexual overtones between Cruise and Nicole Kidman -- who were married at the time -- that it was highly controversial.

7. Vanilla Sky

"I'll tell you in another life, when we are both cats," Cruise's character David tells Sofia (Penélope Cruz).

8. Minority Report

Action is one of Cruise's favorite film genres. He became famous for his role in Minority Report, especially for the cringe-worthy eye surgery and car-jumping scenes.

9. Tropic Thunder

The end credits to Tropic Thunder might house Cruise's second most-famous dance number.
